BLUES GO THROUGH ON PENALTIES

NCEL LEAGUE CUP 3rd ROUND

BRIGHOUSE TOWN 2- 2 LONG EATON UNITED

(aet United win 9-10 on penalties)

Long Eaton United are through to the 4th Round of the League Cup after a dramatic win away at Brighouse Town on Tuesday evening. Town manager Paul Quinn rested nearly all of his first team regulars, only Luke Gibson made the starting line up from last Saturday’s game, but this did not seem to effect Town as they took the lead through Will Tolley on the hour. The game was all but over when Long Eaton’s new signing Jermaine Palmer scored in the 90th minute to take the tie into extra time. Blues took advantage of the extra half hour with Jemaine Palmer grabbing his second after 100 minutes. Moments later the home side hit back through James Hurtley to take the game to penalties. The players kept their cool and the score was 4-4 as Towns midfielder Joe Mitchell stepped up for the fifth but the Long Eaton goalkeeper Mason managed to deflect the ball over. The game was in Blues hands as Allen stepped up but the Town keeper saved to send the game into sudden death penalties. Both side scored with their next five before the Town keeper Brown had his effort saved. Gerome Palmer then scored the final penalty making it 9-10 overall and putting Long Eaton into the fourth round.

THE FINAL INSPECTION

The soldier stood and faced God,Which must always come to pass.He hoped his shoes were shining,Just as brightly as his brass.'Step forward now, you soldier,How shall I deal with you ?Have you always turned the other cheek ?To My Church have you been true?'The soldier squared his shoulders and said,'No, Lord, I guess I ain't.Because those of us who carry guns,Can't always be a saint.I've had to work most Sundays,And at times my talk was tough.And sometimes I've been violent,Because the world is awfully rough.But, I never took a penny,That wasn't mine to keep...Though I worked a lot of overtime,When the bills got just too steep.And I never passed a cry for help,Though at times I shook with fear.And sometimes, God, forgive me,I've wept unmanly tears.I know I don't deserve a place,Among the people here.They never wanted me around,Except to calm their fears.If you've a place for me here, Lord,It needn't be so grand.I never expected or had too much,But if you don't, I'll understand.There was a silence all around the throne,Where the saints had often trod.As the soldier waited quietly,For the judgment of his God.'Step forward now, you soldier,You've borne your burdens well.Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,You've done your time in Hell.'
